Abstract:
The vascular morphological character of the microcirculation in the nail bed of the toe have been studied with the scanning electron microscope. Three types of vascular network were identified: 1) The blood vessels at the proximal two fifth of the nail bed were parallelly arranged. 2) At the middle two fifths of the nail bed, the blood vessels interwoved with each other and formed the polygonal vascular networks. 3) At the distal one fifth of the nail bed there were only a few vascular loops running in a slanting position. These loops were connected with the vascular network from the papillary layer of the skin of the toe.
